As far as I know, the latest Firefox and Google Chrome versions
already sandbox plugins. Gone are the days when a crashed plugin meant
a crashed browser. :)

Can you define "latest"? On my up-to-date F14, the "latest" Firefox is version
3.6.23. Does this version do that sandboxing of plugins?


I believe FF 4 introduced this feature and Chrome had this built in
from the very start. You can get packaged FF 7.0.1 from remi's repo. I
have been using them for a year, IMO his packages are very reliable.

Best, :-)
